Bill of Rights-Security Edition

Found a groovy little website run by some no account lowdown libertarian, and designed for a little carefully engineered protest: the Bill of Rights- Security Edition. From their website:

What is the "Security Edition" ?

The First Ten Amendments to the constitution of the United States printed on sturdy, pocket-sized, pieces of metal.

The next time you travel by air, take the Security Edition of the Bill of Rights along with you. When asked to empty your pockets, proudly toss the Bill of Rights in the plastic bin.

You need to get used to offering up the bill of rights for inspection and government workers need to get used to deciding if you'll be allowed to keep the Bill of Rights with you when you travel.

This would make a nice modest protest display, and an interesting civics lesson for you, the security personnel, and your fellow travelers watching from the sidelines. Make them decide if they are going to literally confiscate your Bill of Rights, and do so in front of your fellow citizens. Sweet.

And wouldn't these babies be fun to give out on the 4th of July?
